Lets talk About Hemp

According to research, Hemp dates back as early as 8,000+ BC where ancient villages in Taiwan used hemp cord in pottery. This makes hemp one of the first and oldest known human agricultural crops!

Hemp has many uses apart from being an incredibly nutritious source of food. Hemp can be used to make clothing, plastic, paper, construction materials, biofuel and rope to name a few. Although it has been recorded that hemp has well over 25,000 different uses, making it a very dynamic and useful plant!

To add to this, hemp also contains incredible environmental advantages, as it is recyclable, reusable and 100% biodegradable.

So, why should we eat it?

This super seed contains the essential nutrients, vitamins and minerals for human function and has long been recognised for its nutritious value as one of China’s five ancient grains!

But before you get concerned, Hemp is indeed different to Marijuana. Hemp contains little to no THC, the component in Marijuana that gives you the ‘high’ and it has no effect on the human body. It is also completely legal to eat and was approved by the Council of Australian Governments on the 12th of November 2017.

Hemp is also vegan-friendly, GMO-free and doesn’t contain gluten, dairy, soy, sugar, cholesterol or any additives!
